Many tracks didn’t allow women to race in the 1950s, which makes these five women icons and pioneers in motorcycle racing.
Last night we spent some time grinding, cutting, and welding.
He and I had one welding lesson before, almost a year ago… I put my skills to the test again last night modifying the tank luggage rack I found at a swap meet so it’ll sit on the 360 tank.
The practice welds below were much better than the one I did on the rack- so it goes. Time and practice, time and practice. (Note: the wider weld was actually practice bridging a gap.)
More photos from the process and final product later.
